iio: pressure: bmp280: make reg_write callback take const void *

The previous commit switched from a pointer to mutable data to a pointer
to immutable data, so let’s fix all users of the nvmem_config API.

[Severity: Low]
Does this syntax error in qfprom_reg_write() prevent the qfprom driver from
compiling?

It looks like "void void *_val" was introduced during a find-and-replace
to make the callback take a const void pointer.

[Severity: Critical]
This is a pre-existing issue, but does the loop in m48t59_nvram_write()
completely ignore the requested offset?

It appears that cnt starts at 0 and is used as the hardware address instead
of adding the requested offset:

drivers/rtc/rtc-m48t59.c:m48t59_nvram_write() {
    ...
	for (; cnt < size; cnt++)
		M48T59_WRITE(*buf++, cnt);
    ...
}

Any subsystem or user-space application performing an NVMEM write at an
offset greater than 0 will silently overwrite data at the very beginning
of the NVRAM.

The same issue seems to be present in m48t59_nvram_read(), which could
lead to incorrect data disclosure:

drivers/rtc/rtc-m48t59.c:m48t59_nvram_read() {
    ...
	for (; cnt < size; cnt++)
		*buf++ = M48T59_READ(cnt);
    ...
}
